The winds have been howling since last night and it’s been raining on and off throughout the island. You don’t usually get a good sunset under those conditions, but when I went out on our South Maui lanai, I could see it was raining from upcountry through Wailuku and into Ma’alaea, but the spot on the horizon where the sun was going to set was clear, and the clouds in that area had just the right density for a good show, so I grabbed the gear and took off.
I’m glad I did. What a great way to end a Thanksgiving weekend.

I saw this IRL – it’s magnificent! Great capture Peter! And thanks for sharing.
NICE!
Wow, there sure is a lot to be thankful for right there.
Love the green on the rocks in the first two (not that the sunset is hard on the eyes or anything).
Nice job as always.
Peter,
Another great job..were these HDR?
Hi Ron,
No, not HDR. Just straight up exposures with a 3-stop ND grad. The weather muted the sun, so it wasn’t as bright as it normally is, which made metering the scene a little easier.
Thanks all! I really appreciate the feedback. Aloha!
Love the depth you captured on the shots.
